I'll keep that in mind.

Supersonic Stockhausen’s “Gruppen,” at Tempelhof Airport, in Berlin. by Alex Ross .

If you're already familiar with Henry Cow, the Art Bears, Speechless, Gravity...I'd say those are the essentials and there's a hell of a lot out there. I'll give this some thought, since I have bunch of them. The Quartets CD with string and guitar quartets is a favorite. There's a 2nd guitar quartet CD - Up Beat - that deserves another spin around here, I don't remember liking it as much. More later...
